Daytrade Brent vs Daytrade Crude Futures: which is better and why?

both Brent and Crude Oil futures have the same tick and point value...(both large and not mini contracts)...I.E....for both, a Buy move from $118.00 to $119.00 = $1,000.00 profit in both...what is the deciding difference to trade one over the other?...the only thing I can think is that to daytrade Brent is lower daytrade margin of $2,500 as opposed to Crude daytrade margin of $3,300...volume is slightly larger on Crude...any thoughts?

Is about quality, Brent blend is a light crude oil, though not as light as West Texas Intermediate (WTI). It contains approximately 0.37% of sulfur, classifying it as sweet crude, yet again not as sweet as WTI. Brent is ideal for production of gasoline and middle distillates. Normally, Brent crude costs $1-$2 less than WTI crude.

If you want to trade the brent/wti spread at ICE you should pay attention to the world freight rates. crude-oil prices usually depend on two things: quality and location, The greater the distance from the major exporters, the greater the price. Brent has traded at discount to similar crude in the U.S. because oil from the Middle East or Africa costs less to ship to Europe than it does to the U.S.

Each contract on CL is worth $1000 a pt- how much is each contract on QM worth?

do you like the CL only?...I like Brent because the daytrade margin is less...CL daytrade margin $3,300 and BZ daytrade margin $2,500...QM daytrade margin $1,650 but need twice the ticks to make the same amount in the CL or BZ...what is your CL daytrade margin may I ask?
